Surely if you take a shot and an arm stops the ball from going on target or into a dangerous position in that fashion it is a penalty whether it is meant or not.

5:45 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bvZzMqUrh8 so these just aren't penalties any more?

Interestingly, Ozil's goal was ruled out for handball against Bayern, and if you went by the same rule, it was unintentional as well

Watching again, should Courtois have done better on the first goal?

Huddersfield top after the first weekend? What a world we live in.

Also looooooool @ Chelsea. A depleted Chelsea facing an uninspired Tottenham next weekend at Wembley is going to be juicy.

The last time Chelsea were 3-0 down so late in the game at home was in the fa cup v Man Utd in 1998 they were 4-0 down soon to be 5
The game finished 3-5
That season arsenal won an fa cup and league double
